Thought he was terrible overall but nice goal.
Some people have his form from a few years ago jammed in their heads so it takes them a while to realize that he's actually a good player these days and they happen to ignore all the good he does and focus on a mis hit cross or something.
We're asking him to basically cover the whole flank
Aren't most of his crosses mis hit? You very rarely see him put a perfectly weighted cross onto a teammate's head. Shaw has done that more often than Dalot this season and he's been injured for all-but-two games.He's our player of the season so far, by far.

Oh well, can't please everyone. Definitely one of our most reliable players though

The one in the second half when Rashford just shot it against a playerI can't imagine what he must think every time he makes a run past into open space and Rashford or Antony just ignore it.
He needs to have a go at them. They can't keep doing it over and over.

Thought he's been consistently good this season
Agree. Just average or lower all round. Excels at nothing.Maybe I'm seeing something else but I just can't stand him as a player, he's a nothing player and does not specialise in anything.
I would get more joy watching Guillermo Varela play RB for us than him.
Similar to the help he gave Bruno on the second goal. Jogging back behind the ref while City had a two on one.Left to fend for himself defensively. Zero help.
Agree, been here several seasons but has no attributes. Just none.Maybe I'm seeing something else but I just can't stand him as a player, he's a nothing player and does not specialise in anything.

Not sure I agree. He defends his back post from crosses pretty well and is decent in the air for a full back. He's also pretty quick.Agree, been here several seasons but has no attributes. Just none.
Not quick, not strong, not creative, can't cross, can't pass, can't defend.
He's symptomatic of the rot at the club.Not sure I agree. He defends his back post from crosses pretty well and is decent in the air for a full back. He's also pretty quick.
Ultimately, he's not great. But I don't think he's our biggest problem at the minute, far from our worst performer.
He was literally double teamed by two players of the quality of Bernardo and Grealish and had zero help all game. He didn't let them do anything. Franklh He had zero hope vs such a tag team.Played like a scared child against Grealish today. Just sat off and let him do whatever he wanted, doesn't help that his main defensive support was Fernandes who is very erratic as a player.
Its weird. We sent him out on loan cos we didn't think he was good enough as a club (and were looking to sell him) yet a few years later he's starting for us.He's symptomatic of the rot at the club.
